Redhat bonding with two switch

http://serverfault.com –
I have a server with two NICs, each connect to separate switch. Two switches connected with a trunk link. The problem is the bonding link is not stable (lost some packets). When I unplug cable from 1 link, many packets has been lost (nearly 1 packet lost on 2 packets). I've tried with all of Redhat bonding list but cannot solve my problem.
My question is: Can I do it and how or why?
Thanks in advance

Hi, I am hoping someone may help me with this issue:I have a motherboard with 2 Intel NICs.I created a bonding interface, mode = 4 (LACP), and assigned no IP to it.create one vlan to internet (dhcp)another vlan to local network (static)both NICs are connected to the same switch, and LACP configured on the portsProblem:ping from this one to any other pingable hosts gave strange result, more or less

I've read up a little bit on bonding nics with ifenslave; what I'm having trouble understanding is whether there is special configuration needed in order to split the bonds across two switches. For example, if I have several servers that all have two nics each, and two separate switches, do I just configure the bonds and plug 1 nic from each into switch #1 and the other from each into switch #2?
